bareMinerals Prime Time Eyeshadow Extender Translucent Eye Primer — 24-Hour Crease-Proof, Waterproof, Vegan

bareMinerals Prime Time Eyeshadow Extender is a translucent, vegan eye primer that smooths lids and locks eyeshadow in place for up to 24 hours with a crease-proof, waterproof finish.

Prime Time Eyeshadow Extender is formulated to create a silky, even base on the eyelid so pigments go on truer, last longer and resist smudging from sweat or humidity. The primer is ophthalmologist- and dermatologist-tested, silicone-free, and packaged with a paddle applicator for precise, mess-free application. It works under powder or cream shadows and is safe for contact-lens wearers.

How does this primer improve eyeshadow wear throughout the day?

This formula helps eyeshadow adhere to the lid and reduces fallout, so color stays vivid from morning through evening. By smoothing texture and controlling oils, it maintains the shadow’s original finish without settling into fine lines.

• Creates a tack-free base that grips powder and cream shadows for extended wear
• Helps prevent creasing and fading for up to 24 hours*
• Translucent finish preserves true eyeshadow color payoff

Will Prime Time work for oily or hooded eyelids?

Yes — the primer is designed to smooth and mattify lid texture, which helps counteract excess oil and the tendency for shadows to migrate in hooded eye shapes. Its lightweight formula avoids a heavy or stiff feel on the eyelid.

• Visibly smooths uneven texture and minimizes the look of fine lines
• Controls oil without a cakey residue, aiding long-lasting application
• Suitable for all lid types, including hooded or naturally oily lids

How should I apply this primer for the best results?

Use the paddle applicator to distribute a small amount across the mobile lid, blending gently with a fingertip or brush until barely visible. Apply a thin, even layer and allow it to set for a few seconds before layering eyeshadow.

• Swipe the paddle across the lid and dab to blend a thin film
• Wait a few seconds for the primer to set before adding pigments
• Works under powders and creams; reapply if you need extra longevity for long days

Is this primer clean, safe, and suitable for sensitive eyes?

Prime Time is formulated without silicones and labeled vegan, and it has been both ophthalmologist- and dermatologist-tested to help ensure compatibility with sensitive eyes. The formula is safe for contact-lens wearers and designed to be gentle while improving makeup performance.

• Silicone-free and vegan formulation for a cleaner ingredient profile
• Ophthalmologist- and dermatologist-tested for sensitive-eye suitability
• Ideal for contact-lens wearers and those who prefer gentler makeup bases

Who this is for: BareMinerals Prime Time Eyeshadow Extender suits anyone who wants truer color payoff, better texture on the lid, and long-lasting, crease-resistant eyeshadow — particularly useful for people with oily or hooded lids, those who wear contact lenses, and anyone seeking a vegan, silicone-free primer. It’s a practical pick for everyday looks, long events, or humid climates where smudge- and sweat-resistance matter.
